Sacrament of Baptism

As a congregation of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), we offer the sacrament of baptism for people of all ages, including infants and children. Adults and youth can be baptized when they make their profession of faith. When infants and children are baptized, parents profess faith in their behalf, and the congregation pledges to help nurture the child in the faith. In addition, an elder sponsor participates in the ceremony. Family members are invited to stand with the person being baptized. Baptism takes place during Sunday morning worship.
For infant baptisms, normally at least one of the parents should be an active member of Newnan Presbyterian Church. The Session has final approval for all baptisms.
Contact the Church Office or one of the pastors to discuss or arrange for a baptism.
